It’s the middle of the summer and it’s that time of the year again where the rumors are already everywhere about the MLB Trade deadlines that will be taking place in less than 2 weeks.

Our staff has been hearing rumors, speculations and hearsay for the last couple of weeks as to who will be going where and one of the big questions around is whether the Chicago Cubs will be major trade deadline players?

Game 2 of the NBA finals is over and many are thinking that this is it for the Cleveland Cavaliers as they lost another game against the Golden State Warriors in a 77-110 defeat last Sunday. In fact, the Warriors are making the Cavs look like a second rate team when they rolled over them by 33 points.
